Donalds: I Never Said Jim Crow Was Better, I Was Talking About the Marriage Rates of Black Families During that Time

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
Sharpton: “Politicsnation” to make his case. Congressman, welcome to the show. You just heard what congressman veasey had to say about your comments. You’ve also been criticized by house minority leader hakeem jeffreys and the head of the dnc, Jamie Harrison, both of them black. One of them black from brooklyn like you were born in brooklyn, I was born in brooklyn. What’s your response?”

DONALDS: “My response is is that it’s very interesting how people can just lie and mischaracterize what I said. The video’s on my social media. You can listen to it in full. I never said or insinuated anything about Jim Crow being better. Just was talking about the marriage rates of black families in America during that time period. It’s an impeer cal fact.”
